Next week could be a busy week for Republican Presidential Politics in these parts. Although we are still awaiting confirmation, Ron Paul is scheduled to make an appearance at URI on Wednesday, April 18th. There are also tentative plans with the Gingrich Camp to host a visit next week from both Newt and Calista, perhaps separately on two different days. Ray McKay and Dave Talan, the RI Coordinators for Rick Santorum, remain hopeful that their candidate will also make a stop.

As soon as state party headquarters knows something, you’ll know something.

On Tuesday, April 24th, five states hold their Primaries. They are DE, PA, NY, CT, and RI. You will note that three of those five are contiguous, which makes them prime targets for a bus tour.
